In-flight freezes every 10-30 seconds

Featured Replies

I just did a nice clearing of my SSD and a fresh install of windows 10 on it and installed my sim and just the addons I needed for my flight. I'm in flight right now and I have been for the past hour and a half at the time of this post but for the past 30 minutes or so, while at cruise every 8 seconds to a minute, FSX just freezes and says "Not Responding" for about 20 seconds and goes back to normal for another 10 seconds or less. I tried saving the flight and restarting my sim but that did not work. I have FSUIPC autosaving my flight every 200 seconds but I'm not sure that really has to do with it. Then I just tried turning off Activesky Next and for some reason my sound got all messed up. 

I just want to know, with flight sim or maybe computers in general, do people encounter issues like this every day? For me, it seems like there is a daily malfunction I have to get rid of for flight simulator or my computer. Even with an OS reinstall on a clean disk, it seems like I can't escape the annoying problems FSX poses for me every day. 

It could be a background process, possibly Windows indexing the files on the SSD.

My computer: ABS Gladiator Gaming PC featuring an Intel 10700F CPU, EVGA CLC-240 AIO cooler (dead fans replaced with Noctua fans), Asus Tuf Gaming B460M Plus motherboard, 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM, 1 TB NVMe SSD, EVGA RTX3070 FTW3 video card, dead EVGA 750 watt power supply replaced with Antec 900 watt PSU.

It is FSUIPC auto-save. Check out seem other threads relating to this same issue that have answered this.

Ooops, spelling error. Sorry.

Thanks for linking me to this post, I know it can get annoying to answer something that already was in another post somewhere. Guess I did not type the right in into google.

Don't worry about asking questions here!  It is what the forum is all about.  Fortunately Rick had an almost immediate answer for you.  In fact, this is one of the fastest threads resolved.

Best regards,

Jim
